Original Press Release:
New RF Tag Reader from Accu-Sort
Telford, Pa., April 2002- Accu-Sort(R) Systems has introduced a new product in its new line of RFID solutions, the Sentient RFR-02. A fixed-position RF tag reader for use in factory automation, captive and closed-loop applications, automated material handling and rental returns, the new unit is compatible with the ISO 15693 standard and Texas Instruments Tag-it(R) protocols. It reads passive RF transponders that operate at 13.56 MH2.
The compact, self-contained RFR-02 incorporates a modulator/demodulator, analog-to-digital converter, decoder and communications in a rugged Nema 4 enclosure, using a 50-ohm antenna for read-distance flexibility. Also provided are an RS-232 data port and DC power input jack. An RF power amplifier module allows it to be used either as a low-power, short-range or medium-power, long-range device. In addition, the RFR-02 can accommodate an interface card for various network-type connections, such as DeviceNet, CAN, Ethernet and others. LEDs on the reader indicate power and read status.
The RFR-02 can also write pertinent manufacturing data into a RF tag as an item passes through the production process. Information such as sub-assembly, quality test data and process sequences can be tracked directly to the tagged item along the production line. The RFR-02 is easy to mount and can be used outdoors, in industrial environments and on vehicles.
